Bejuba!, Koko Rose add Flora of the Forest partners

Cartoon Network has picked up animated comedy Wishfart from Canada’s Bejuba! Entertainment for multiple territories, including the UK.

The international children’s net will air the 40×11′ series in the UK, Africa and Israel following the deal with Bejuba.

Created by Dan Williams, Lienne Sawatsky and John Hazlett, Wishfart follows the escapades of a teenage leprechaun with rookie wish-granting powers and his friends, a female ghost and a puffin. It is aimed at six- to 12-year-olds.

Discovery Italy has also picked up the series, which is produced by Wishfart Productions for Corus Entertainment’s Teletoon in Canada. It has previously been acquired by CiTV in the UK.
